Description Vladimir Benes 2011-05-05 11:40:58 UTC
Description of problem:
cannot share WPA/WPA2 connection via intel centrino ultimate 6300. It works with WEP but not with WPA.. Nm-applet icon is somehow greyed out and client cannot connect but it sees the network. After creating profile with IP addresses client can connect but cannot ping anything.. Thus WPA encryption works some other thing is broken.

cannot even connect, can connect with static IPs but then network is not working
